Operational Security (OpSec) 101

WARNING: THE WEAKEST LINK IS YOU

Operational Security is a lifestyle, not a setting. Compliance with the following rules is mandatory for survival in the darknet ecosystem.

Rule 01: PGP IS NON-NEGOTIABLE

Never, under any circumstances, paste a plaintext shipping address into the order box. Even if you trust the market, you should never trust a database. Always encrypt your address with the vendor's public PGP key before submission.

Rule 02: BROWSER HYGIENE

Use the TOR Browser on the "Safest" security level. Disable JavaScript where possible. Never resize your browser window, as this provides a fingerprint of your screen resolution.

Rule 03: FINANCIAL SEPARATION

Never send funds directly from a KYC exchange (Coinbase, Binance, Kraken) to the market. Use a "cleaning" wallet like Cake Wallet or Monero GUI. Transfer from the exchange to your personal wallet, then to the market.

Rule 04: ACCOUNT ANONYMITY

Your username should have zero connection to your real-life identity, email addresses, or handles used on Clearnet platforms (Telegram, Discord, Reddit). Use unique handles for every platform.
